Summary: | Pectus excavatum (PE) can be associated with cardiac disorders that also require surgical repair. Totally endoscopic robot‐assisted mitral valve plasty for mitral valve regurgitation was performed while elevating the sternum with the aid of our original electrical sternum lifting system. Then, the Nuss procedure was performed successfully via small incision. Simultaneous robot‐assisted cardiac surgery and the Nuss procedure is effective. Sternal elevation during cardiac surgery is very important for a safe procedure. The Nuss technique prevents perioperative cardiac compression and allows for correction of the pectus deformity with good cosmetic and functional results.
